Jeff,

I got my information from a 1951 N&W document that gave the capacities for the coaling stations. The two (each different designs) at Prichard and Bluefield were much bigger being 2,000 tons each.

I got to looking at these a bit more. Are you sure about Vicker being 250 tons and Farm being 200 tons? Those structures are much smaller than Bluefield and Prichard.

Can anyone provide a listing of the capacities of the surviving N&W coaling towers? I have the information on Bluefield. Was curious how others such as Farm, Prichard, Auville and Vicker measured up.
